nls function
...r function so I did: fit <- nls(y ~ I(a+b*exp(1)^(-c * x)), data = penetrationks28, start = list(a=0,b = 1,c=1), trace = T) The error message I get is: Error in nls(y ~ I(a + b * exp(1)^(-c * x)), data = penetrationks28, start = list(a = 0, : singular gradient I've tried to change the startervalues but it always gives the same error I've also tried the following adjustment hoping that the c value would be negative: fit <- nls(y ~ I(a+b*exp(1)^(c * x)), data = penetrationks28, start = list(a = 1,b = 1,c=1), trace = T) but then the error message is: Error in nls(y ~ I(a + b * exp(1)^...
